netware 3.12 license disks

[homer15]

does anyone know where i can find netware 3.12 license disks? i thought i found a guy in texas who would sell me some, but instead he wanted to sell me a whole new copy of 3.12 for 6 grand. psssh. i need a 100-user disk desperately. thanks. or, if anyone has any "creative" ideas around the license limitation *ahem*... please pm me. otherwise, does anyone know where i can get disk?

All I can think of is possibly Ebay - Novell licensing for older versions is a royal pain and you can't buy licenses from Novell any more. There is no "creative" way that I know of - and if there were, I sure wouldn't discuss it here anyway. If I remember right - to reuse a license disk, the licenses actually have to be deinstalled from the server back onto the disk.

i don't think that's true. i've been doing some reading and the licenses do remain with the disk. 3.12 is the only one that didn't have an option for adding more licenses, so new license disks have to be totally reinstalled. there are ways around this, but it looks like a pain. i have to figure something out, though.
